Pick: What would you watch on TV in 1971?

Are you a fan of Scooby, Shadows and Sullivan?

It's time to play our favorite game: What! Would! You! Watch!

Yes, that's right, ladies and gentlemen. You have the remote! You choose!

Whether you were around that year or just nostalgic for some groovy, good-time and gritty television, 1971 offered up a wonderful variety. We'll take you through the week that was. You pick the channel.

See how your selections compare with everyone else.
  1. You come home from school on a rainy Friday in spring. Nothing to do outside, so turn on the TV. What will you watch at 4PM?
  2. It's now Friday evening, and mom has made a roast. What are you watching at 7:30PM?
  3. Saturday morning is here, which means it's cartoon time! Turn the knob to one of these channels at 8:30AM.
  4. After playing outside all day, you are hungry. For dinner and more TV. What's the family watching together at 7:30PM on Saturday evening?
  5. A day has passed. Sunday night is also for families. So what is the clan watching at 8PM?
  6. After an awesome summer vacation, school is back. And a new TV season has begun! What are you watching on Monday at 8PM?
  7. Tuesday is here. Which show is kicking off the evening at 7:30PM?
  8. How about Wednesday at 8PM?
  9. What about later that evening, at 10PM? Are you looking for private eye action, Rod Serling's chilling tales or Anthony Quinn as a mayor?
  10. The year has come to an end. 1971 is over. It also happens to be Thursday at 8PM. So what's on now? Family comedy, western or variety?

“The Electric Company” premiered in 1971, why wasn’t it mentioned as a daytime program choice?
